COOK'S EXTRA ARCHIVE |
|
|
|
Cook’s Extra is a special feature for subscribers of Cook’s Illustrated magazine and members of CooksIllustrated.com. Listed below are original recipes, sidebars, or related food and equipment ratings that we were unable to fit into the magazine, but were developed using the same stringent guidelines. The recipes are designed to stand alone— you don’t need anything from the magazine to make them—and are free of charge to both members and subscribers for the current issue, as well as the past three issues. All past Cook’s Extra articles are available, without expiry, for members of CooksIllustrated.com.
